Well, we’ve got more big news for you…or, rather, more Big Star news: we’ve reissued the band’s box set, <em>Keep an Eye on the Sky</em>!</p>
<p>Yep, this is a case where those of you who got in on the goodness when it first came out don’t have anything to do but consider what other great new Rhino release you’re going to spend your money on instead, but if you’ve been toying with the idea of bulking up the Big Star section of your collection, then here’s an easy way to do it with a single purchase.</p></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-tags field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Tags:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/keep-an-eye-on-the-sky" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Keep An Eye On The Sky</a></div></div></div>Tue, 25 Nov 2014 22:51:33 +0000rhino9086 at http://www.rhino.comNew Release: Jethro Tull, WarChild: The 40th Anniversary Theater Editionhttp://www.rhino.com/article/new-release-jethro-tull-warchild-the-40th-anniversary-theater-edition
<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p>40 years ago, Jethro Tull thrilled their fans by revealing that they were in the midst of working on a new project entitled <em>WarChild</em>. Less an album than a full-fledged event, Ian Anderson and company had big plans for not only a new studio album but also a feature-length motion picture and a soundtrack album. Unfortunately, due to the band’s inability to find financing for their film, the only thing that ever saw formal release from this grand affair was a 10-song album, but at least it provided them with a bit of solace when it climbed to #2 on the Billboard Top 200 and found its way into the top 15 in the UK.</p>
<p>If you’re a Tull fan who’s often been lost in thought about what you may have missed out on seeing and hearing, you’re in luck: you can now pick up a copy of <em>WarChild: The 40th Anniversary Theater Edition</em>, a two-CD / two-DVD set. The CDs include the original 10-track album, a collection of 11 so-called “Associated Recordings,” three of which are previously unreleased, and 10 orchestral pieces which had been written for the soundtrack, nine of which are previously unreleased. As for the DVDs, those will provide you with the opportunity to see the promo for “The Third Hoorah,” as well as footage from a photo session and press conference in ’74 where the band first announced the <em>WarChild</em> project. Oh, and lest we forget, there’s also an 80-page booklet which takes an in-depth look at what was intended to come to fruition, including a film script synopsis, track-by-track annotations by Anderson, and rare and unseen photographs from the era.</p> </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-tags field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Tags:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/warchild-the-40th-anniversary-theater-edition" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">WarChild: The 40th Anniversary Theater Edition</a></div><div class="field-item odd" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/cddvd-set" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">CD?DVD Set</a></div><div class="field-item even" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/box-set" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Box Set</a></div></div></div>Tue, 25 Nov 2014 19:55:48 +0000rhino9061 at http://www.rhino.comEnter to Win A Framed LImited Edition Captain Beefheart Print And Sun Zoom Spark Box Sethttp://www.rhino.com/article/enter-to-win-a-framed-limited-edition-captain-beefheart-print-and-sun-zoom-spark-box-set

<p>As our press release for the collection revealed, the collection was first conceived as the music to a ballet about love, but after spending 18 months trying to distill everything she’d written about love—and the lack of it—down to a single disc, Mitchell opted to abandon the ballet. “I wanted the music to feel like a total work—a new work,” she explains in the liner notes to the set. “No matter what I did, though, at that length, it remained merely a collection of songs.”</p> </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-tags field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Tags:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/love-has-many-faces-a-quartet" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Love Has Many Faces: A Quartet</a></div><div class="field-item odd" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/a-ballet" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">A Ballet</a></div><div class="field-item even" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/waiting-to-be-danced" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Waiting To Be Danced</a></div><div class="field-item odd" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/box-set" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Box Set</a></div></div></div>Tue, 25 Nov 2014 00:38:53 +0000rhino9046 at http://www.rhino.comRide Reunites (Oh, Dear, They’re Going Blank Again…)http://www.rhino.com/article/ride-reunites-oh-dear-they-re-going-blank-again

<p>In 2007, we put out a pretty cool Emmylou Harris box set entitled <em>Songbird: Rare Tracks & Forgotten Gems</em>, one which featured 78 tracks, all hand-chosen by the singer-songwriter herself. At the time of its initial release, Emmylou said of its contents, "I've selected not greatest hits but personal favorites that – with a few exceptions – have never appeared on any other compilations, but were important gems in the string of pearls that each album strives to become.” In addition, the set also included a handful of contributions she’d made to different tribute albums, various and sundry live and demo tracks, and a few collaborations.</p> </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-tags field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Tags:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/songbird-rare-tracks-forgotten-gems" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Songbird: Rare Tracks &amp; Forgotten Gems</a></div></div></div>Wed, 19 Nov 2014 00:36:29 +0000rhino8941 at http://www.rhino.comDoing a 180: The Special AKA, In the Studiohttp://www.rhino.com/article/doing-a-180-the-special-aka-in-the-studio

Why the change in name? Well, you know how it goes with bands: memberships change over time, and sometimes enough members depart to make it seem a little dodgy to keep the band’s name the same.</p>
<p>In the case of <em>In the Studio</em>, which emerged almost half a decade after the previous Specials album (More Specials, released in 1980), there was good reason to view the group as an untested entity, given that Terry Hall, Lynval Golding, and Neville Staple had all headed off for the poppier pastures of Fun Boy Three, leaving Jerry Dammers as the predominant creative force. Not that he hadn’t already been writing songs, but there was definitely a major shift in the material with the aforementioned trio having departed the ranks, particularly in the political content.</p></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-tags field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Tags:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/in-the-studio" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">In The Studio</a></div><div class="field-item odd" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/180-gram-vinyl" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">180-Gram Vinyl</a></div><div class="field-item even" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/tags/vinyl" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Vinyl</a></div></div></div>Tue, 18 Nov 2014 23:51:08 +0000rhino8936 at http://www.rhino.comNow Available: Peter, Paul & Mary, Discovered: Live in Concerthttp://www.rhino.com/article/now-available-peter-paul-mary-discovered-live-in-concert

<p>Peter Yarrow, Noel Paul Stookey, and Mary Travers first came together in 1961, and although they took the occasional hiatus here and there over the years, they continued to play together until Travers’ declining health took her off the stage, but even after her death in 2009, Yarrow and Stookey have carried on, taking the trio’s music into their 50th anniversary and beyond. Those five decades are being celebrated on PBS on December 1, when the network premieres a new documentary, “50 Years with Peter, Paul and Mary,” but the celebration really started back on November 4, with the release of a new coffee table book, <em>Peter, Paul and Mary: Fifty Years in Music and Life</em>. As you’ve probably guessed by now, we’re getting into the act, too, and our contribution comes out smack dab between the other two, with the release of a collection featuring 13 live performances of songs never recorded for any Peter, Paul & Mary studio album.</p>

While his music was generally well out of the mainstream, his seminal album, 1969’s <em>Trout Mask Replica</em>, made such an impact that it was added to the United States National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress in 2010.

<p>If you’ve ever wondered exactly how rhythm and blues evolved into soul music, then you need only listen to the work of Solomon Burke, who has long been considered one of the key figures in that particular transition. As a man whose spiritual upbringing made him feel a bit sketchy about embracing the more rough-and-tumble elements of R&B, let alone rock ‘n’ roll, Burke took the existing sounds of the day and made them his own, making them smoother yet still more than managing to deliver an emotional impact with the material. In turn, he became known as “The King of Rock ‘n’ Soul,” hence the title of the album that’s brought us here today.</p>

<p>As a matter of fact, we started going through the archives the other day, and, frankly, even we were a little surprised at some of the stuff we found.
